About the Thick-billed Berrypecker
The thick-billed berrypecker (Melanocharis crassirostris) is a species of bird in the berrypecker and longbill family Melanocharitidae. It is found in New Guinea. Its natural habitat is subtropical or tropical moist montane forest. The spotted berrypecker (Rhamphocharis piperata) was formerly considered conspecific (with both species being grouped under the common name "spotted berrypecker" but with the scientific name R. crassirostris), but it was split as a distinct species by the IOC in 2021.

We only publish recordings we may use commercially, because this site is supported by ads. xeno-canto lists 2 recordings for this species: 2 CC BY-NC-SA. None of them permits commercial use, so there is no player here — the page is kept as a profile so the bird is not missing from the guide.
As soon as someone uploads a freely licensed recording, we mirror it and the player appears here.
